Obstacles
Dave Oakes
Feeling as if my heart has been torn from my chest
I lay battered and beaten at each and every turn
Unable to be with the one I love so much
All I can do is wait for the right time and yearn.
The distance between us is quite a problem
And that is only one obstacle to overcome
Each and every hurdle which lies across our path
Must be dealt with slowly, taking them as they come.
Sometimes it is hard to have so much patience
But some things are worth any amount of trouble
If you can’t overpower the problems right now
You just have to wait and not let then burst your bubble.
The wall will eventually crumble to the ground
If I have to use a hammer for the rest of my life
Nothing will forever be able to keep me away
From this soulmate who I would take for my wife.
